 * Delete, unavoidably POV. Clinton had his spitting-mad opponents and conspiracy theorists too; they just didn't work in show business. Also, article about a joke . Gazpacho 03:04, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete: Yes, they did. However, let's stick to this article's contents.  This is supposed to be a taunt that conservatives use to make fun of anyone who criticizes the Prednisent.  I.e. it's a joke, and calling it a "meme" actually diminishes its importance in my book.  Delete as a single joke. Geogre 16:34, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Comment 3960 Google hits on exact phrase "Bush derangement syndrome." I'd normally regard that as evidence of real use. However, only 379 are displayed, the rest being "very similar." All seem to be relevant, right down to #379. Only 242 hits in Google groups, where real people talk about real things. That's a surprisingly low groups:web ratio. Not quite sure how to interpret this. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 17:12, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Neologism? zoney &#09827; talk 20:33, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)


 * I'd say merge and redirect to George W. Bush, but that page is protected.   &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 23:37, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, of course. RickK 23:37, Nov 14, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete: the latest political buzzphrase isn't noteworthy, it'll soon be something else. Rje 23:45, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge with GWB. Intrigue 04:20, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, not a real medical condition, just made up by a journalist to be catchy. --Spangineer 20:56, Nov 18, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, note that this is not the cognitive deficit symptomatic of presenile dementia Bush was 'diagnosed' as having, this is a condition normal people supposedly get from Bush's own deranged behavior, which is probably not in fact caused by insanity or any psychiatric condition but is likely a physiological condition. I wish people would stop calling him the President until he actually gets electedPedant 07:13, 2004 Nov 19 (UTC)
